I also want to search in discogs with "artist - title" for the master release or single cover.So after your hint, I deleted album and albumartist. But discogs tagger don't use title for searching. I would prefer to have an additional option for a default entry in "Load" and "Quick Search" to save it in "Save Options".Any other advice to get the desired search-result?

You need the internet Explorer not only for authenticate. Without IE the addon wouldn't work, sorry

Can you make that feature also available for Discogs results too??

What I do in these cases, when there are many releases and I'm looking for a specific one is to open the album link and then, on the browser, I open all releases in new tabs, so I can cycle them fast. When I find the one I want, I use the release number back on the tagger. It's not ideal, but easier than waiting for discogs tagger to load 30+ albums one by one.

Just start Discogs Tagger and confirm the message. After that the discogs webpage should appear. Please log in. Follow the instruction on the screen.

I never had this issue. I don't have a discogs account and I keep using the tagger normally. In fact, it's been a long time since it even asked me for authentication. Not sure if I needed to authenticate even once this year.

You need a discogs account. Without it you can't tagging with Discogs. Authentication ist only once needed.

No, this would absolutely helpful, but discogs didn't give back the total track number in a search result.

I see, thanks! - did you check with Discogs if they can make the trackcount available? It would be helpful for their webpage too (have just been looking at the 254 versions of "The Yoshua Tree" by U2 trying to find the 49 track release). If we get more people to request that useful feature we might get heard by the Discogs folks

Good idea!
